Active Generosity Podcast
Podcast Description
Welcome to Active Generosity, Stewardship's brand new podcast. Join us for an exploration into the world of faithful and generous Christian stewardship.
I’m your host, Ruth Jackson. Each month I’ll be chatting to a Stewardship donor, partner or colleague about their journey of generosity, exploring why and how they give, the joys and challenges they’ve experienced along the way and what a difference generosity makes to their lives.
As you hear from both donors and leaders of charitable causes, our prayer is that you’ll learn something new, experience fresh perspectives and be encouraged and inspired to take the next step on your own generosity journey.
Along the way, you’ll also learn something about us and the myriad ways in which we support our donors and the many charities, churches and Christian workers who are our partners. Perhaps you do already know us as a donor but have no idea we may be supporting some of your favourite causes. Or, you’ve come to us for help as a church or charity leader or Christian worker but didn’t realise we can also support you in your personal giving. As you put the pieces of the Stewardship jigsaw together, we hope you’ll also be excited to discover our growing community of engaged givers and verified partners doing amazing work across God’s Kingdom.
Subscribe to our podcast newsletter via the link in our trailer show notes, where you’ll also find further information about Stewardship.
Together, let’s discover the joy of active generosity.

In this episode of Active Generosity, Ruth Jackson talks with Anthony Delaney, Senior Leader at Ivy Church in Manchester and founder of LAUNCH, a movement equipping and connecting entrepreneurs and church leaders across the UK and beyond.
Anthony shares his passion for shifting churches from a scarcity mindset to one of Kingdom abundance. He gives practical tips on how to disciple people in generosity and offers remarkable stories of God’s provision when faith steps were taken.
Anthony recalls moments when setting bold giving goals unlocked waves of generosity and miraculous provision beyond anything they imagined. He reminds us that generous living reflects God’s nature and leads to eternal impact.
“Whatever we give to God He multiplies and it’s 30-, 60-, 100-fold.”
This episode explores:
why generosity is integral to discipleship
practical guidance for leaders on talking about money
inspiring stories of faith, generosity and provision
why investing in God’s Kingdom gives the greatest return
Anthony’s favourite Bible verse on generosity:
‘God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that at all times and in all things having all that you need you may abound in every good work.’ (2 Corinthians 9:8 NIV)

How you can pray:
pray for courage for church leaders to talk about generosity wisely
pray for increased faith among believers to trust God in finances
pray that Christians everywhere would live as joyful givers
